About
A fermented bioactive that helps condition skin and can add soothing, moisturizing, or antioxidant components.
This ferment or ferment filtrate contains metabolites created when microbes process plant oils, sugars, or extracts. Well-made cosmetic ferments are usually low risk and can improve humectancy or soothing feel, but residual proteins, acids, or batch variability can still bother highly reactive skin.
Function
Skin benefits
- Helps keep skin soft and smooth
